Wild Rose Summer Jo Grafford

A lovely, aspiring author hoping to become published, a gun-toting cowboy who thinks he's engaged in a subtle pursuit of her, and a scheming guardian who puts a delightful wrinkle or two in everyone's plans...


A dreamer like her father, Rose Addington has been secretly penning novels for romantic-minded young ladies under the pseudonym of R. Addington. Unfortunately, her dragon of a guardian, Aunt Flo, doesn't approve of dreaming. Her crotchety spinster heart is set on marrying off her niece by summer's end to a suitable gentleman of good breeding.


When a local farmer accidentally bumbles his way into their unlocked townhome, Aunt Flo decides to add shooting lessons to Rose's endless list of educational past-times. It soon becomes clear to Rose that gun shop owner Lancaster Tracy is shamelessly courting her during her lessons - right beneath her aunt's autocratic nose.


Now she has two secrets to hide from her aunt - her writing and her new beau. She worries when her aunt finds out about them, she will be forced to the same crossroads her father faced years ago. What will her choice be? Her family's dynasty or her personal happiness?
